AI-Powered X-ray Image Analysis
We are developing deep learning algorithms that enhance radiographic interpretation, improving early detection of dental caries, periodontal disease, and oral pathologies.
This initiative engages students and faculty in research, utilizing diverse datasets from Tufts dental clinic, community health centers, and private practices to ensure robust, bias-free diagnostics.
